Top TV presenter, Douglas Lwanga has been a hot topic on social media lately. Following his sudden disappearance from the Serena based TV station, rumours have been making rounds that he was fired from the station or that he found a better gig somewhere and left the show he has been at the forefront of for 5 years.
The former Katogo TV show presenter on Record TV has finally silenced all the rumours and made it known why he left NTV Uganda.
He says; ‘I have been watching, hearing and seeing stories about me. I have been shocked by them myself as much as you have. Please allow me make some things clear. My journey didn’t start 5 years ago. Some of you know my story. How i came on screen , how i have grown to how the Purple Party started and so much more. The 5 years i have been on NTV have been awesome much as the years i spent doing KATOGO on RecordTV. We have done just so much together, won so many Awards, grown a huge fan base but most importantly i have been able to witness the continued growth of Ugandan Music and talent something i love to do with passion,’ he started.
On what happened at NTV Uganda, Douglas had this say; ‘Never in my life have I ever been fired from a job as some people reported reason being from day one in all companies I have worked, I actually put in 200% in what i do. Passion drives me the most . Those close to me know well. Sometimes Life has to move on especially if better opportunities arise, that’s the only way we grow. Its not a bad thing. We are humans we always pursue better and more , that’s what makes us humans. The principal is simple Just be the best you can be. Never settle. Always strive to learn more, do more, and be more,” he continued.
On what his future plans are, Douglas says that he is cooking something new. It will be in line with entertainment. In the statement, he thanked his fans for looking out. ‘I have been seeing your messages and love. Ill share more details of whats next. Don’t allow anybody out there to tell you the Douglas Story. This is it. Again thank you for always believing in me my people. The love and support you show me unconditionally is what has brought me this far. Its what keeps me going regardless the challenges.’
Douglas thanked NTV for opening doors for him and said that it was a wonderful journey and experience.
